(record review)GRAYSCALE:”Adornment”(Fearless Records)

Cover

The second album by these Philadelphia based melodic punk rockers brings us 11 new songs. Compared to the first album “What We re Missing”, this one brings improvement both musically and lyrically. This time the quintet worked with the producer Kyle Black(State Champs, Handguns, Hit The Lights) in creating a perfect bland of melodic punkrock and alternative rock. Now you will think, wtf this must sound like some soundtrack to Beverly Hills 90210 or Melrose Place, some shitty college rock stuff, but it aint like that at all. After the poweful album opener Let It Rain comes the first highlight of the album Come Undone. Vocalist Collin Walsh sounds more self sure than ever and combined with guest vocals, courtesy of Patty Walters makes a great and melodic anthem. The album is very emotional with songs like acoustic and piano themed Forever Yours and Mum which will make you swim in an endless lake of emotional turmoil. The album is very diverse and it is not boring in any moment. This album is a perfect soundtrack for sunny weekend afternoon and preparing yourself to go for some open air festival fun. I listened and reviewed it like that, and believe me, it was a joy! Top songs: Come Undone, Beautiful Things, Echoes(Carry On).

7,5/10
